Error booting game

Hi,

I've been having an issue with SE for some time. When I launch the game on steam or via exe, the game begins to run in the background but no window is opened. As well as this, I can't close the game in task manager and steam thinks it is running.

I have reinstalled, check drivers, verified integrity of game files, and tried redownloading the config file.

I will post the log files of both before I updated the config files and before.
